Machine learning frameworks available in EMR

There are several machine learning libraries or frameworks that you can configure in your EMR cluster. TensorFlow and MXNet are a couple of popular ones, which are available as applications that you can choose while creating the cluster.

Even though TensorFlow and MXNet are available as pre-configured machine learning frameworks in EMR, you do have the option to configure other alternatives such as PyTorch and Keras as custom libraries.

Now let's get an overview of the TensorFlow and MXNet applications in EMR.

TensorFlow

TensorFlow is an open source platform using which you can develop machine learning models. It provides tools, libraries, and a community of resources that will help researchers and data scientists to easily develop and deploy machine learning models.

TensorFlow has been available in EMR since the 5.17.0 release and the recent 6.3.0 release includes TensorFlow v2.4.1.
